After trying a direct compile of the loopback.c file, it did not compile. The
kernel build ran did not compile the loopback.c file due to missing
configuration.
About this change, the macro expands to function declarations at compile time
and those can't be enclosed in do/while loop as these are not logical execution
instructions. So it won't compile.
I initially looked for "greybus driver" under the "main menu > drivers >
staging drivers" path, but not find any configurations for the driver. While
retuning back, I found "greybus support" config under "menu-menu > device
drivers" itself. I set it to "M" and build the module. I did not realise that
setting this parameter to "M" actually results in adding several configurations
under "staging drivers" path. I now understand that.
Thank you for your help. I will look for another sensible change and send my new
first patch.
